Leaving Cobb Bridge for a night ambush. These sorts of things pretty much defined our days and nights.
The one good thing about having the night ambush was that you didn't need to pack a lot with your. |

Pfc. Norman E. Dawson. He was killed July 16, 1966. The casuality records said he was killed by, "multiple fragmentation wounds." This usually means a booby trap. No idea where this was taken.
These pictures were loaned to me by Marie Simonelli who was engaged to Norman when he was killed. |

Doc Junger was killed on the night of April 15, 1969. |
